It was the first [[Knights Hospitaller]] monastery in Denmark, and was used as monastery until 1536 when the crown took over ownership and turned into a castle. [[Frederik II of Denmark|Frederik II]] used the castle between 1580 and 1584. After that it was used by fief lords until 1717, when it became a ''ryttergods'' - a location for the Danish cavalry. It was sold in 1774 and most of the castle was torn down in 1816.<ref>[https://natmus.dk/historisk-viden/temaer/ruiner/antvorskov/ Natmus.dk] "Antvorskov" Retrieved 23 August 2020</ref><ref>[https://destinationsjaelland.dk/inspiration/kultur-og-historie/antvorskov-klosterruin/ Destinationsjaelland.dk] "Antvorskov Klosterruin" Retrieved 23 August 2020</ref>
